Could be helpful

EDITOR:This quote could be helpful to readers as they consider who they should vote for in our coming elections.

"You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the small men by tearing down the big men. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot lift up the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot build character and courage by taking away a man's initiative and independence. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatreds. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves."
